Dialight Launches New DuroSite® LED Area Light for Industrial Task and Area Lighting

70W Fixture Replaces up to 250W HID for Maximum Energy Savings and Long-Life Durability with High Efficacy of 79 Lumens per Watt

Farmingdale, NJ (November 3rd, 2011) – Dialight (LSE: DIA.L), the innovative global leader in LED lighting technology, today unveiled its new DuroSite® LED Area Light, the newest addition to its class-leading line up of LED industrial lighting solutions.

Leveraging the same outstanding energy efficiency and durability as the recently-launched SafeSite® Class I Div 2 certified area light, the DuroSite LED Area Light delivers 79 lumens per Watt to effectively replace up to a 250W HID unit slashing energy consumption by nearly 70 percent.

“Our SafeSite certified product has quickly become a favorite among customers in the chemicals and oil & gas industries for its low power consumption and zero maintenance needs,” said Roy Burton, Dialight Group Chief Executive. “This new UL1598 version offers that same highly efficient and reliable operation for general applications and reinforces Dialight’s position as the leading source for industrial LED lighting solutions.”

Available in either 180-degree forward throw or 360-degree circular optical pattern, the LED Area Light is ideal for interior or exterior general area illumination and task lighting for industrial applications, including production areas, warehouses, loading docks and building exteriors. Flexible mounting options include direct conduit, stanchion and wall mount, as well as a swing bracket wall mount that allows for precise light placement directly where it is needed most.

The DuroSite LED Area Light offers superb visibility with superior color rendering compared to traditional high-pressure sodium and mercury vapor fixtures, offering a CRI greater than 70 in either cool white or neutral white CCT. The unit delivers optimum performance at operating temperatures ranging from -40°F to +149°F with instant on to eliminate the warm-up common with traditional fixtures. A low temperature output also ensures minimal impact on ambient air temperature/HVAC load for interior applications to support overall energy-efficient operations.
